A young girl over comes her fears with the help of her grandfather and his honeybees.
It is spring time and nine years old Sophie Moon is excited about spending time with her grandfather. He has a surprise for her. A package of honeybees is waiting to be installed in a new hive.
Although it isn't the puppy Sophie hoped for; she is curious about the world of beekeeping.
During the passing seasons, the honeybees become the answer to many of her troubles and fears.
"'Why don't we suit up and whisper to the bees. They'll hear you and mayhap give you advice,' Grandpa said smiling."
Supported by her loving grandfather and seeking solace by visiting the beehives in each season, Sophie's fears and relationships rise and fall throughout the school year.
It is a charming and educational story about personal growth tied closely to the life of honeybees.
Never stops trying, learning, and most of all following her dreams.
Szilvia Jennings lives with her husband in rural Ohio. She enjoys spending time outdoors, taking care of her bees and dreaming up new stories on sleepless nights.
What if a young girl learned to navigate the turbulent waters of middle-school bullying by mastering the calm waters of a lake with her grandfather's help?
